BCM53903中文资料Timing over Packet (ToP) Processor for Precision Timing Applications数据手册Broadcom规格书

描述 Description

Timing over Packet (ToP) processor provides a high-quality, cost-effective solution wherever high-precision timing references are required.
 A combination of power-efficient processing, accurate timing capture, generous on-board memory and flexible interface configuration gives the designer confidence that the timing solution designed today will adapt to the requirements of tomorrow. With rate limiting on up to four receive and four transmit queues, priority processing for timing packets is ensured. Each Gigabit Ethernet port has a configurable parser that can be used to filter incoming packets according to a variety of user-defined rules. This gives the user confidence to accommodate new packet formats with just a software update. The integrated digital timing engine supports both IEEE 802.1as and IEEE 1588 synchronization protocols, including hardware timestamping logic and digital PLL for clock recovery.
